Standard VGA in Proxmox 1.9

[Ismael Barros]

When I was using Proxmox 1.7, I had a KVM machine running Ubuntu 10.10, using the Standard VGA driver, as it's the only one that seems to work with TeamViewer.

Now I've updated to Proxmox 1.9, and the machine doesn't boot anymore with the Standard VGA driver. With any other driver (default and Cirrus) it works fine, but with the Standard VGA one, I get a "out of range pointer 0x80220000" error in grub (I'm attaching a screenshot)

Does anyone know what can be done about this? My inmediate goal is to be able to boot the Ubuntu KVM machine using the Standard VGA driver, but my general machine is to be able to use TeamViewer with Ubuntu and KVM, be it with the Standard VGA driver or not.

I just installed a new Ubuntu 10.10 machine, no updates, and the error shows up already on the very first boot. However, the installer runs fine.

Nope, same out of range pointer problem :\

just to note, 10.10 is out of support as far as I see.

I just installed a 11.04 with the vmware drivers, no issues here, as expected.

Yup, 11.04 works fine. Slow as hell with Standard VGA, but at least works

Thanks a lot!
